Ooh! Thanks! That's exactly what it was. Those sheets are small for
lasagna sheets. A bit wider than some brands but much shorter. I may have
purchased it from Amazon Fresh. Don't know. Or perhaps Central Market. I
think they have that brand. I will look next time I am in. I do not like
pasta that is labeled as whole grain. It has an odd texture to me. I do
love the whole wheat, but in this house, I seem to stand alone there. Oh
well. The regular kind is cheaper so if that's what they want, I'll buy
that.
